More about Mission Therapeutics
Mission Therapeutics is a UK-based drug discovery and development company located in Cambridge. The company specializes in creating first-in-class small-molecule inhibitors that target deubiquitylating enzymes (DUBs) to address serious diseases with high unmet needs, including Parkinson’s Disease, Alzheimer’s Disease, and acute kidney injury. Founded as a leader in DUB-targeted therapies, Mission Therapeutics utilizes a proprietary platform to develop innovative drugs that enhance cellular health by promoting mitophagy. The company’s pipeline includes key assets like MTX325, a USP30 inhibitor in Phase II clinical trials for Parkinson’s Disease, and MTX652, which is also in Phase II for Acute Kidney Injury. Mission collaborates with major pharmaceutical companies, such as AbbVie and Pfizer, to validate and develop its DUB inhibitors, while maintaining partnerships with academic and research institutions to support its scientific endeavors. The company has successfully raised £117 million from a network of institutional and corporate investors, which supports its ongoing research and development efforts.

About this page
Why Mission Therapeutics is on this map
Cambridge Tech Map is an independent guide to the Cambridge technology market, built and maintained by Innovare Recruitment from public sources: careers pages, job boards and company announcements. We are not affiliated with Mission Therapeutics, we do not represent them, and we play no part in their recruitment process. Every application goes direct to their own careers site.
For candidates, this page does one job: every live tech role in Cambridge in one place, so you can see the whole market without trawling ten job boards. No sign up, no gate, and you apply direct.
For the Mission Therapeutics team, here is our thinking, stated plainly. A recruitment agency only ever earns its place in one of three ways. It sends the right candidate at the right moment. It gets referred in by someone it has placed before, who now works with you. Or it shows value your internal team cannot easily get elsewhere: deeper market knowledge, faster shortlists, a clearer read on who is genuinely available. This map is our working proof of that third door. We track every tech employer in Cambridge, every live role, and the shape of the market around them, and we would rather show that work in public than claim it in a cold call. If it is ever useful when you hire, we would love to help. And if anything on this page is wrong, tell us below and we will fix it fast, or remove the listing entirely if you prefer.
